Los Angeles Lakers Form
Los Angeles come into the new season looking to erase the bad taste from last season’s playoff exit at the hands of Denver.
The Lakers scraped into the postseason with a 108-102 overtime victory over Minnesota in the Play-In Tournament.
They made a big splash in the first round though, taking down Memphis with a 4-2 series win to set up a conference semi-final showdown with Golden State.
Los Angeles then went six games with the Warriors, clinching a place in the conference finals with a 122-101 victory.
The Lakers’ run was brought to an abrupt halt there though, as they were swept in four games by Denver.
Denver Nuggets Form
Denver come into the 2023/24 season looking to win back-to-back NBA championships.
The Nuggets set the standard last year as they compiled a conference-best 53-29 record to clinch home court advantage for the playoffs.
They made straightforward work of Minnesota with a 4-1 series win, and then bounced back from a couple of road defeats as they beat Phoenix 4-2.
That set up a conference final clash with the Los Angeles Lakers, and Denver rolled over LeBron James & Co. with a 4-0 series sweep.
The Nuggets then claimed the NBA Championship as they rebounded from a Game 2 defeat, winning three consecutive games to beat Miami 4-1.
Verdict
Denver were a dominant force at home last season and there is no reason for that to change.
The Nuggets can mark the unveiling of the championship banner with a home win and cover against the Lakers.
